Garden State Trout

As the owner of a fishing forum I should get my ass out there and fish more often but I haven't been out as much as I should. I finally went out and got my first trout of 2019, a nice wild brown from a really small stream that's rather local to me now. In October we moved closer to trout country so I will definitely take advantage of being under 30 mins to a bunch of WTS and other good water.

The good trout came out of nice deep plunge pool with good current. Got him on a trout magnet (for shame!!!). I caught a few others upstream from the first but they we all small around 5-6". I had yesterday off so I started off with some fishing and then went to play golf...... Roast away!!

Looks like your world turned upside down when you finally got out to fish!!!

Great looking brown!

As the owner of a fishing forum, you should be able to orient your photos correctly. How many IPAs did you have yesterday?

Are they upside down?? They look normal for me on my phone! Haha

Very nice fish! I also got out for the first time yesterday, and only managed one stockie on a streamer on the SB. I was blind casting a caddis fly most of the day, which wasn't too smart since I didn't see any fish rising. Sporadic caddis we're on the water, and I did see some decent size mayflies around the riffles but no one looking up.
